Mara Plains Camp

€1.190,00

Set on a bend in the Ntiakitiak River in the 35,000 acre Olare Motorogi Conservancy and bordering Kenya’s Maasai Mara Reserve, Mara Plains is a stunning and intimate safari camp in one of the most iconic wildlife destinations on the planet.

One of only five camps on the Olare Motorogi Conservancy, guests at Mara Plains have unrivalled access to more than 100,000 acres of exclusive, low-vehicle density tourism land, prime habitat for a vast number of wildlife species, as well as unfettered access to the 375,000 Maasai Mara Reserve.

Mara Plains Camp is the perfect combination of romance, adventure and exploration.

Type: Camp in Kenya

ACCOMMODATION

Each of the 7 tents has deep canvas canopied ceilings, rough, wooden floors and accents of East Africa’s rich safari history. Thick Lamu wood doors, deep purples, and brass accents transport guests to a time and land far away.

The well-appointed en-suite facilities (including a deep copper bath), plus the extensive private veranda, complete what is genuinely a stunning concept.

These stylistic elements coupled with thoughtful environmental elements such as solar power and no cement make Mara Plains a modern-day safari retreat.

FACILITIES

The camp’s main area takes your breath away. After crossing the bridge, Africa is revealed. Positioned just so, the horizon lies ahead, punctuated by a single acacia tree. It’s the Africa of the mind’s eye.

Flanking the main mess area is the library, an area to enjoy a quiet afternoon, passing the time reading books or editing your photographs. Flowing fabrics, open-air spaces and strong teak structures ground the space.

ACTIVITIES

Early morning, late afternoon and night game drives in an open, 4×4 vehicle as well as cultural excursions to the local Maasai Community.

Horse riding & hot air ballooning across the Maasai Mara can be arranged at an additional cost.

WILDLIFE

By day and night, the camp is a sanctuary for resident species, including many of the Maasai Mara’s 300 bird species.

After dark, larger mammals frequent the camp and Maasai warriors escort guests to and from their rooms. Hippos snorting and leopards barking often provide the night’s chorus.

Each guest tent has a professional Canon camera and lense available to them, add to it the pair of Swarovski binoculars, and it is impossible not to see and capture the region’s incredible wildlife scenes.
